Moon-Gazing Raccoon on a Rock
Coloring guide
Perched on a rounded rock, a young raccoon tilts its face up toward a big full moon covered in crater circles. Large round eyes, a little nose and a soft smile give it a curious, dreamy look. Small tufts of fur circle the cheeks and chest, and the big ringed tail curls around behind it. Three tall pine trees stand in the background and a few small stars are scattered across the night sky. The large, open shapes make this free printable a good choice for preschoolers and early elementary kids, while the stripes, fur and moon craters give older children more to work on. Soft grays and charcoal suit the fur, and you can alternate dark and light gray on the tail rings. A deep blue or purple sky around the moon would feel quiet and cozy.
